Acute Myocardial Dysfunction and Chest Trauma - The Strainy Trauma Study (Strainy trauma)

March 28, 2022 updated by: University Hospital, Montpellier

Assessment of Prevalence and Prognostic Value of Acute Myocardial Dysfunction in Severe Trauma Patients With Chest Trauma Using 2D-strain Ultrasound: A Prospective Observational Study

This study aims to investigate whether the identification of acute myocardial dysfunction by 2D-strain transthoracic sonography in the first week following trauma would allow to better diagnose occult and severe patterns of myocardial contusion, in order to identify a subpopulation at higher risk of complications.

The measurement of myocardial strain (2D-strain) by transthoracic sonography is a robust tool to assess the myocardial function.

The investigators strongly suppose that the 2D-strain would allow to better identify subclinical MC in chest trauma, as well as the severe patterns that are associated with more organs dysfunctions and a worst outcome.

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Detailed Description

Thoracic trauma is the cause of significant morbidity and accounts for 25% of trauma-related deaths.

The myocardial contusion (MC) is a distinct injury, which has a prevalence increasing with the severity of the trauma. The diagnostic tool is a major factor to vary the prevalence of MC (i.e. clinical exam, biology, electrocardiogram), with the highest values for autopsy series, until 24% of patients. It does not exist therefore of gold standard for the diagnosis of MC in clinical practice leading to a modest knowledge of this nosological entity. In clinical practice, troponin plasma level determines the diagnostic.

Otherwise, the measurement of myocardial strain (2D-strain) by transthoracic echocardiography (TTE) is a robust tool to assess the myocardial function. This ultrasound analysis allows an objective and topographical quantification of an acute myocardial dysfunction, be it global or segmental. 2D-strain has been thus has been validated for the diagnosis of myocardial dysfunction in medical setting. Its use in trauma setting has never been reported.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

14 years to 70 years (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

All

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

These dates track the progress of study record and summary results submissions to ClinicalTrials.gov. Study records and reported results are reviewed by the National Library of Medicine (NLM) to make sure they meet specific quality control standards before being posted on the public website.

Study Major Dates

Study Start (Actual)

Study Start

The actual date on which the first participant was enrolled in a clinical study. The "anticipated" study start date is the date that the researchers think will be the study start date.
February 28, 2021

Primary Completion (Actual)

Primary Completion

The date on which the last participant in a clinical study was examined or received an intervention to collect final data for the primary outcome measure. Whether the clinical study ended according to the protocol or was terminated does not affect this date. For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
